Justice Society Presents - The Sandman Slept Here 2

July 17, 2025

You’re not dreaming! THE SANDMAN SLEPT HERE is back with another exciting episode. Max Romero, Ryan Daly, and Paul Kien as they discuss Sandman Mystery Theatre issues #5-8. Writer Matt Wagner is joined by artist John Watkiss for a pulpy tale of racism, identity, and star-crossed love. Who is the man from Dian’s past, and how is he connected to a string of brutal murders in Chinatown? What nefarious force seeks to put rival Chinese factions against each other? And how will the mysterious Sandman thwart the chameleonic killer known as “The Face”? Plus, the hosts respond to last episode’s listener feedback and play another round of “The Dream Sequence”. Get out of bed already and tune in!

Who's Editing #20: The Three Soldiers of Editing

December 13, 2022

Siskoid welcomes two guest editors for the price of one as Gareth Madeley and Paul Cornish bring a certain Welsh flavor (and humor!) to their line of books based on Who’s Who #20, while Siskoid himself goes back to superhero comics’ pulp roots for his inspiration. But there are a lot of concepts that were already so well re-imagined by DC over the years… Can our trio find something new to say?
